USA.gov launches vote.USA.gov to help citizens register and connect with states

One of the most important rights of American citizens is the right to vote. It is the foundation of our democracy, and in many ways, the basis of our government. This is why the team at USA.gov is excited to announce the launch of vote.usa.gov.

The mission of vote.USA.gov is to provide information to potential voters, empowering citizens to take that important step toward registering. Working alongside the Presidential Innovation Fellows to create an attractive, easy-to-navigate site, vote.USA.gov provides quick access to 23 states that currently accept online registration. The site also connects citizens to the National Mail Voter Registration Form, provided by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) and accepted by most states.
